The Bee is one of the 10 contestants of “The Masked Singer” Season 1 whose identities have yet to be revealed. Hosted by Nick Cannon, the Fox reality singing competition show features Ken Jeong, Nicole Scherzinger, Robin Thicke and Jenny McCarthy as the celebrity judges.

What we have learned after the unmasking of The Hippo as Antonio Brown in episode 1 titled “Mask on Face Off” and The Pineapple as Tommy Chong in episode 2 “New Masks on the Block” is that the objects presented as clues should not be taken literally. The clue to The Bee’s identity is tennis but it may not mean that she is a tennis player.

Performing “Chandelier” by Sia, The Bee proved that she deserves such titles as Queen of Music or Singing Empress. McCarthy said she was getting goosebumps while Thicke described The Bee’s pitch and vibrato as perfect.

After the performance, Scherzinger asked The Bee what decade she started singing in. The mystery contestant said she has been singing since the 1950s.

Scherzinger thought The Bee could be Dionne Warwick. However, these are the netizens’ guesses:
